The Official "2012 Playoffs Excitement" Thread

Recommended Posts

I'm not gonna go out and proclaim victory when the series hasn't started yet, but I just want the Devils to absolutely destroy and bury those fools. I've talked about ruthless aggression often enough, so let's find out if our team really has it in them.

I think the Devils' aggressive forecheck will cause all sorts of problems for the Rangers' collapsing system.

They can try and put 5 guys between the D and the goalie and clutter the slot all they want. But at least 2 or 3 Rangers will have to commit deep to fight the Devils' cycle. That should open up some space and create opportunities

I dont know how to feel about this. I was 9 in 1994 and remember crying. I want revenge lol. Really would love to see the Rangers in one of those awful Nickelback montages. Ugh I already feel all anxious

Yeah, picking them out of the playoffs and to lose in the first two rounds didn't work out for him.

FYI, I said there were 8 teams who played 14 playoff games in the first 2 rounds and advanced, but it's only 7. They are a combined 11-28.

What kind of seeding did those teams come in with? I feel like that sounds more like the story of some underdog team that scrapped its way to 1st and 2nd round victories than a President's Trophy contender battling with teams that maybe should have been much inferior to them.
